More Local Support For Giordano Bandwagon

FROM EMIL GIORDANO CAMPAIGN – The Emil Giordano for Superior Court Committee is proud to announce the endorsement of Lehigh Valley officials,
including Republican State Representatives Mark Gillen and Barry Jozwiak, Democratic Lehigh County Executive Tom Mueller, Republican Berks County Commissioner Christian Leinbach, Democratic Berks County District Attorney John Adams and former Republican Allentown Mayor William Heydt.

“I am incredibly grateful for the tremendous amount of bipartisan support my campaign has received and I am confident that working together we will be successful on Election Day,” Judge Giordano said.

Judge Emil Giordano is running for a seat on the Pennsylvania Superior Court. Judge Giordano has been endorsed by the Republican Party of Pennsylvania, Pennsylvania Fraternal Order of Police, Pennsylvania State Troopers Association, Pennsylvania Medical Society, National
Federation of Independent Businesses, Pennsylvanians for Effective Government, Le-Hampton Lodge 35 FOP, Allegheny County FOP, Queen City Lodge FOP, Scranton FOP, Pennsylvania Associated Builders and Contractors (ABC), ABC Eastern Pa. Chapter and has earned the "recommendation” of the Pennsylvania Bar Association, Firearms Owners Against Crime and LIFEPAC. Judge Giordano currently serves on
the Northampton Court of Common Pleas, a position he has held since 2003. Prior to being elected, Judge Giordano served as an assistant district attorney, assistant public defender, civil litigator and as lead counsel in his private law practice. Judge Giordano resides in Bethlehem with his wife Tina and his two sons, Joseph and Caden. For more information about Giordano’s campaign please visit EmilGiordanoforJudge.com.

The ABC is spending millions a year to promote anti-union, anti-government policies that are putting America’s workforce at risk,” said Dr. Thomas J. Kriger, author of the report. “The ABC’s low road employment strategy may have produced short term gains for open shop contractors and construction users, but this strategy also produced negative consequences for the industry and society.”

While I do not doubt Judge Emil Giordano is a responsible citizen; his list of ringing endorsements from the business/corporate community, the GOP and many FOP Lodges statewide are powerful disincentives to cast a vote his way. Lacking broad based citizen support is a no-go.

I don't know what planet you've been on, but Judge Giordano has an immense amount of grass roots support. He is overwhelmingly popular,and could easily run for some other office statewide and win. You are criticizing him bc he has bipartisan support? Alrighty then.

I would have to see the flyer. I have one from Scomillio and he does not mention Judge Giordano. He ticked off his endorsements at the debate, and Judge Giordano's name was not among them. I am sure that, if asked, Judge Giordano would pose in a flyer with his fellow Rs. But I see no evidence that he has endorsed anyone in the county race. He appeared at a rally with Sam in the Spring. I did not take that as an endorsement either. He is trying to promote his own candidacy.
